Departure from Horeb
6 “The Lord our God spoke to us at Horeb: ‘You have stayed at this mountain long enough. 7 Resume your journey and go to the hill country of the Amorites(A) and their neighbors in the Arabah, the hill country, the Judean foothills,[a] the Negev(B) and the sea coast—to the land of the Canaanites and to Lebanon as far as the great river, the Euphrates River.(C) 8 See, I have set the land before you. Enter and take possession of the land(D) the Lord swore to give to your ancestors(E) Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and their future descendants.’(F)
